Dragon Raja: Back from Tiling, My Mother Lu Mingfei

Huai Xu and Lu Mingfei chatted aimlessly for more than half an hour.

The conversation started with Ultraman's human form, then moved on to whether Tiga truly possessed light, then to how many pairs of animals were actually on Noah's Ark, then to the stray cats downstairs from Lu Mingfei's house, and finally to the philosophy of life.

Lu Mingfei was quite serious at first, but later he realized that Huai Xu was talking nonsense, so he stopped taking it seriously.

"Why do you talk like that, it's like you're just farting?"

"Because I'm down-to-earth."

"You call that being down-to-earth? You call it Journey to the Center of the Earth."

[Lu Mingfei's approval rating rises to 8%]

Lu Mingfei is really susceptible to this.

He becomes wary when you speak to him seriously, but he finds you sincere when you chat idly.

What's wrong?

"By the way, are you free tomorrow at noon?" Huai Xu asked.

"what?"

"I'll treat you to a big meal."

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment: "What kind of feast?"

"Eat whatever you want."

"real?"

"real."

"Then I want to eat Japanese food."

"OK."

"The really expensive kind."

"OK."

"I'm talking about the kind of meal that can cost several hundred dollars."

"I said okay, are your ears blocked with poop?"

"Could you please stop using the word 'shit'...?"

"Okay, so are your ears blocked with food?"

"Let's just use shit."

Lu Mingfei finally agreed.

Although he felt that Huai Xu was indeed mentally unstable, who would turn down a big meal?

[Lu Mingfei's approval rating rises to 9%]

Huai Xu turned off QQ, lay on the bed, and began to review the situation.

Current list of mothers:

Chen Wenwen, 22%, white entry "The Youthful Thoughts of a Literary Girl".

Su Xiaoqiang, 17%, white entry "I really have a lot of money".

Both are N-level terms, neither is particularly strong, but both are useful.

Literary talent combined with empathy can help build goodwill.

A monthly allowance of 50,000 yuan can improve one's quality of life.

There's also a UR attribute called "100% chance to catch a blade barehanded," which is really powerful, but the trigger conditions are strict. You can only catch slashes, and you can't hold anything in your hands.

There's also a white entry titled "Unlimited Techniques - Part One - Let's Poop," which...

In some ways, it's even better than catching a blade barehanded, but... let's not talk about it.

Huai Xu turned over, and a thought began to race through his mind.

The ending of the woodcutter's knife.

The system says that the more mothers a person acknowledges, the higher the probability that those mothers will be yandere (obsessive and possessive).

He didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that yandere only existed in the world of anime and manga.

But Chen Wenwen's performance today made him a little flustered.

"When it's just the two of us..."

"Have you ever thought about letting her be your mother too...?"

Isn't this the early symptom of a yandere?

They are possessive, jealous, start defining their territory, and demand special treatment.

It's already like this at only 22%, what will it be like when it reaches 50%, 80%, or 100%?

Would you just grab a knife and slash him?

After all, his act of recognizing a mother is essentially about finding a "substitute mother." If every mother feels that she should be the only one...

Huai Xu shivered.

No.

He has to change his strategy.

I can't keep being a simp anymore.

His previous strategy was: increase favorability → increase recognition → obtain keywords.

The idea itself is correct, but the way it is implemented is problematic.

He adopted a humble and ingratiating attitude towards every mother, always going along with their wishes.

Chen Wenwen said, "You're not allowed to call me 'Mom' in front of others," and he replied, "Okay, Wenwen, Mom."

This attitude is beneficial in the short term, as it can quickly shorten the distance between people.

But in the long run, this is planting a time bomb.

Because he can't possibly have only one mother.

He needs four, five, or even ten mothers.

If he treats every mother with the attitude of "good mother, whatever you say is right," then these mothers will eventually start fighting.

And when they start fighting, what will happen to him, as their shared "son"?

cannon fodder……

He must establish his dominant position.

It's not "I want to be your son," but "I want you to be my mother."

The subject is "he" and the object is "mother".

He was the one initiating the conversation, while his mother was the one being passive.

He can change his mother, but his mother can't change her son.

He can have multiple mothers, but a mother can only have one son.

This is the correct relationship model.

So the question is: how do we establish a dominant position?

After thinking for a while, Huai Xu came to a conclusion.

Strong.

Be assertive with every mother.

We can't just accept whatever they say; we have to accept whatever he says.

Chen Wenwen said, "You are not allowed to call me 'Mom' in front of others." How should he respond?

Whether I call it or not is my business, it's none of your concern.

Instead of "good Wenwen's mom".

Given Su Xiaoqiang's attitude today, he should have been more assertive.

Tell her directly, "I think you're suitable to be my mom. Whether you agree or not is up to you, but I will always call you Mom."

Instead of trying to gain favor by playing the victim or trying to please others.

Huai Xu sat up.

He doesn't need to adapt to the mothers' rules; he should make the mothers adapt to his rules.

His rules are simple:

First, it's his business whether he acknowledges his mother; mothers have no right to refuse.

Secondly, he can have many mothers, but the mothers cannot have other sons.

Third, mothers can be jealous, but they shouldn't cause trouble.

Fourth, if she causes trouble, he has the right to ignore her, replace her, or even delete her.

This rule may seem domineering, but if you think about it carefully, isn't it just a basic characteristic of maternal love?

Motherly love is inherently exclusive, possessive, and unconditional.

He simply applied this logic in reverse to mothers.

"Okay, let's do it this way."

Huai Xu lay down again and closed his eyes.

Starting tomorrow, we'll change our strategy.

I'm not licking anymore.

Becoming a father.

No, he should be a son.

A domineering son.

the next day.

noon.

Huai Xu waited for Lu Mingfei at the school gate.

Lu Mingfei, wearing a faded school uniform and carrying a backpack, walked over slowly.

"You dressed like that to eat Japanese food?"

"What's wrong? Does the Japanese restaurant have a dress code?"

Huai Xu remained silent for a moment.

"Alright, let's go."

The two took a taxi to a Japanese restaurant in the city center.

Huai Xu made way for Ming Fei to order food.

Lu Mingfei opened the menu, glanced at it, and his hands began to tremble.

"What's wrong?"

"This...this price..."

"Order yours."

"This sashimi platter costs 880?"

"point."

"This Wagyu beef costs 1200?"

"point."

"This sake costs three thousand?"

"Do you want some?"

"I won't drink it."

"Then we won't order it."

Lu Mingfei ordered a few dishes with trembling hands, then handed the menu back to the waiter, looking at Huai Xu with a slightly awkward expression.

"Just how rich are you?"

"good."

"How good is 'okay'?"

"That's enough to treat you to a few Japanese meals."

Lu Mingfei was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke: "Didn't your family fall on hard times?"

"Even after falling on hard times, they're still so rich?"

"They were richer before they fell from grace."

Lu Mingfei remained silent.
